The Sun is quickly disappearing over the mountain tops. The sky is layered in orange, pale blue and white...pretty soon deep pink and purple will appear. My son and his best friend are downstairs and I can hear the giggles and laughs as they wait for the charcoal to heat up enough to cook the tro...

What is effective blogging? What are the goals of your blog? Broker Bryant has a featured post this morning asking the question, Is your blog relevant? and it got me thinking about the goals we all should have for our blogs. The point of blogging is for business.....right? Ok, then there are 3 el...

What a novel idea? But wait.....you say....I haven't perfected what I'm doing now? Conventional wisdom tells us to take things one step at a time.....learn one thing, do it well, and then take on the next thing. Ok! But this takes time, and in the meantime the real estate world moves on. When I f...

I'm loving the posts about our wonderful military celebrating their sacrifice. In the supermarket today my husband asked my son if he would like hot dogs or hamburgers on Monday at our BBQ.

This 3 bedroom/ 2.5 bath townhouse has a private patio to enjoy BBQs or just reading in the sun. There is a full-sized 2-...

Just sayin!! As many of you know....I'M A LAKER FAN! But in this case, I'm thinking of the country as a whole. Among the best of sports rivalries have included Celtics and Lakers. I know that there were those who wanted to see Lebron play Kobe....that's more Hollywood hype, in my opinion. Celtics...

Play to win! For all the conversations/debates we've had on Active Rain, in office meetings and amongst each other.....REAL ESTATE IS SALES, and sales is a numbers game. Increase the number of times you talk/touch/meet someone who is buying or selling real estate and the better the chance you hav...

It happened again!! I just listed a great townhouse in a very popular beach community. That's the good news! The bad news? I also just received an offer from a "very serious young couple." The offer arrived in my inbox with all the required documentation, pre-qualand proof of funds. No phone call...

Since I'm sitting in my family room enjoying all these things right now....I know about which I speak. Since this is not a romance blog post, we'll leave the "love" part out of it, but the wine and cheese? Definitely! I had a dear friend over for some hors d'oeuvres and a good chat....it was such...
